Temporarily exclude PC content from search

[Davide78]

Hi, this is my first thread, so I'd like to start by congratulating you on your wonderful program!
I'm using it for searches on the PC where it's installed and on certain folders on the server.
As I ask in the topic title, I would like to know if there is the possibility of performing (temporarily) searches only on the server folders, specifically set in the program, avoiding the results that concern paths on the PC.
Greetings

Thank you for your feedback Davide78,



Please make sure your mapped network drive or network share is included in your index under Tools -> Options -> Folders.



To limit your search results to a network drive, include the drive letter in your search, for example:

j:

(where j: is your network drive)



To limit your search to a network share, include the drive letter in your search, for example:

\\server\share

(where \\server\share is network share)



Alternatively, to exclude a drive from your results, include the following in your search:

!c:

! = NOT
(where C: is your local drive)



To exclude multiple drives from your results, include the following in your search:

!c: !d: !e:

(where c: d: and e: are the drives you wish to exclude)



To include only multiple drives in your results, include the following in your search:

c:|d:|e:

| = OR
(where c: d: and e: are the drives you wish to include)



If you find these searches useful, please consider adding them as a filter from Search -> Add to filters...
Filters can be activated from the Search menu, Filter bar (View -> Filter Bar), Filter sidebar (View -> Filters), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.
Filters can be organized from Search menu -> Organize filters.
